Painting Guidance

Buy the pack - then follow this guidance.

Step into the breathtaking landscape of Orkney, Scotland, captured with vivid brushstrokes and a vibrant palette. This painting showcases the serene beauty of the countryside, with rolling fields stretching towards the horizon, touched by patches of golden yellows and rich reds that contrast against the cool blues of the sky and sea. Charming cottages are nestled within this colorful panorama, providing a sense of tranquility and timelessness. The style is both abstract and impressionistic, encouraging both careful observation and creative interpretation.

Step-by-Step Painting Guide

Materials Needed

Acrylic or oil paints (use the provided colour wheel as a guide)
Brushes of various sizes
Canvas or painting paper
Palette for mixing colors
Optional: Painter’s tape for crisp edges

Getting Started

Begin by reviewing the optional grid and line drawings included in your pack. These will help you place key elements accurately. You can choose to lightly sketch the grid onto your canvas using a pencil to assist with placement.

1. Background and Sky

Start by painting the sky with light blue, gradually blending into a lighter hue towards the horizon. Use broad strokes to suggest cloud formations.
Create the distant sea by layering deeper blues. Ensure a smooth transition between sea and sky.

2. Fields and Foreground

Mix and apply the yellow and green tones for the fields. Use varied brushstrokes to mimic the textures of the landscape.
For the foreground, apply bold strokes of red and accents of orange. Use a palette knife if you wish to create more texture.

3. Buildings and Details

Paint the cottages using a mixture of pale gray and white. Add details like doors and windows using darker tones.
Surround the buildings with touches of greenery and pathways, using subtle shades of green and brown.

4. Final Touches

Refine the landscape by adding lines and shadows to accentuate depth and perspective.
Use the provided colour wheel to ensure harmony. Adjust colours where necessary to match the source image closely.
If desired, add texture and abstract elements with flicks of paint or splashes, inspired by the painting's style.

Using the Artist’s Grid and Line Drawing

To maintain accuracy with composition, align the grid on your pack with your canvas. Use the grid to check the proportion and placement of main elements, adjusting as necessary. The line drawing provides an outline to follow, helping especially with the placement of buildings and key landscape features.

Finishing Up

Once the painting is finished, step back and view it from a distance to see your work come together. Make any final adjustments, ensuring balance in the composition. Allow the painting to dry thoroughly before displaying.
